Večernji list (lit. 'The Evening Paper'; also known asVečernjak) is a Croatian and Bosnian-Herzegovinian dailynewspaper published inZagreb andMostar.
Večernji list was started inZagreb in 1959.[3][4] Its predecessorVečernji vjesnik ('The Evening Courier') appeared for the first time on 3 June 1957 in Zagreb on 24 pages[5] but quickly merged withNarodni list ('The National Paper') to form what is today known asVečernji list.
Večernji list is considered a conservative-leaning newspaper.[2]
Večernji list formerly had multiple regional and two foreign editions:[6]
In 2012, all of the Croatian regional editions were merged, so four editions remain: Zagreb, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and World.[citation needed]
In February 2021,Večernji list, in collaboration with theAcademy of Fine Arts and the Croatian Society of Fine Artists (HDLU), compiled a list of the 38 Croatians (ethnically Croat or connected to Croatia)[7] who contributed the most to the world, influencing global history. They organized an exhibition held at theMeštrović Pavilion, titled "From Croatia to the World" (Hrvatska svijetu), including over a thousand items connected to the thirty-eight personages.
